What it does

Every week: fuel stations that opened in the last year, only the new ones, sorted by xMap AI into our brand, rivals and independents, emailed and mapped.

In one sentence: Mondays at 08:00, in Johannesburg, find gas stations in the area, keep only new ones, clean up their categories, then email the list to you and show them on a map.

Why it is useful

A new station on a corridor shifts volumes fast. Knowing within a week whose it is lets you respond on price and offers.

The time it saves

Mondays at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 30 minutes each time; it runs about 4 times a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
